SCHOOL PUNiSHMENTS.
The Systems in Vogue in This Country and
in England.

The Systems in Vogue in This Country and
in England.
A sharp discussion recently was
carried on by several leading English
journals concerning subject of inter-
est to every shool-boy; that is, the
kind and amount of punishment
which should be inflicted upon them.
Flogging is the tim e-honored GUS
tom in Great Britain. Under William
Rufus. poor boy in each school re-
ceived his tuition and twopence a year
from every scholar for providing rods
for the use of the master. No English
boy thought it derogatory to his man.
illness to be flogged, not only by the
master, but by the boy whose flag he
was.
1t was only ten years ago that the
custom was abolished at Elton OF
charging half a guinea in each boy S
bill for birch. The elton rod" a
recent writer describes, is made Of
three tough twigs, bound together
with string. The Winchester rod, which
has not been altered since A. d. 1857,
is made of four apple twigs, fastened
in a wooden handle. Four cuts are
called scrubbing, and six a billing,
because. in old times, when boy was
sent up for six, she was introduced to
the head master by the Bible clerk. "
The Bavarian Government has just
prescribed the size of the rods to be
used in schools. @&
The American boy who reads these
words has in all pro ba bility never been
logged at school. The ruler and rod
have gradually yielded place in this
country to systems of 'marks" and
other disgraces, which appeal to a
lads ambition and fear of shame.
These are popularity considered more
humane and civilized than flogging.
But" says Prof. Wright, 1.-The
present system of punishment which
affects only the mind and nerves, is
probably in the end much more severe
than an occasional whipping which
only reaches the body; for our fore
fathers were not shamed or insulted by
the lash"
The noteworthy point in this sub
ject is that no system of edu cation
has ever been devised in which pain Of
some kind as punishment was not a
factor. A boy recognizes in school the
necessity of punishment for broken
laws. Yet the same boy, grown to
manhood, will doubt Gods justice and
goodness because pain and death meet
him in his daily life. He fails to see
that God has taken his education out
of the hands of the masters; that life
itself is but school in which the man
is fitted TO play higher parts in the
world to come. In these upper classes
of middle and old age. pain is a part
of our training just as in the kinder
garten of youth. - Youths Companion

MirKANp CREAM.
The Three Most Popular Methods OF Sop
aratsng Them.

The Three Most Popular Methods OF Sop
arating Them.
The methods of separating the cream
from the milk are three in number;
viz. the deep pail system; the shollow
pan system; and the centrifugal
creamer.
The deep pail system is derived
from the method which has been COM
mon in Sweden for many years. and
which is there known as the Schwartz
method 1t is based on the fact that
the rapid cooling of the milk to low
temperature, and the maintenance OF
this temperature, cause the tire sep
aration of the cream in a few hour 8;
the, lower the temperature. the more
rapid being the separation. There
are several kinds of apparatus in use
adapted for this system. The use of
water from a permanently cold spring
or of ice, is necessary under this sys-
tenn. The use of this method of rails
ing cream is rapidly extending. and
is indispensable in the management
of public creamery.
The shallow pan system is the most
used. and is practically universal in
private farm diaries; it has the advant-
ages of convenience and simplicity.
and under the best conditions of prac-
tice is quite as effective in every way
as the deep pail system. No water or
cooling is required, but some method
of heating is desirable in the winter.
An airy, dry, deep cellar, with thick
walls and well constructed, furnishes
every desirable or requisite condition
for raising the cream under this simple
system.
The centrifugal is comparatively
new introduction in the business of
dairying, but its value and adaptation
for the economical and effective work
ing of diaries, large or small, are
boundless. This machine, which
separates on the principle that
centrifugal force in confined vessel,
properly constructed, will throw the
denser and heavier particles of fluid
to the outer circumference, and thus
compel the lighter particles to seek the
center. 1t is really the adaptation of
the principle of gravity to horizontal
position. compelling the lighter parti-
cles to rise to the top and the heavier
ones to sink to the bottom. so to speak,
by the exercise of this force exerted
horizontally instead of perpendicular
ly. Like all the other operations of
natural dynamic laws, it is exceeding
ly simple. america Agriculturist.

The State capitol at Richmond. Va.
is the oldest building Of the kind in
America still used for its original pur-

is one of the historic buildings Of the
country. It stands upona command

Facing the capitol is the Governors
mansion. To the right Of the capitol
is, doubtless. the most magnificent and
costly group of statuary in the Union
Surmounting huge star-shaped ped
estal of Virginia's granite is Thomas
Crawford's famous equestrian statue
of Washington; and around it on
each of the five points of the star
are effigies of the Old Dominion's
most celebrated ante-bellum soldiers
and statesmen. There are Patrick
Henry, the orator. Virginia's first
Governor; Thomas. j jefferson; Governor
Thomas Nelson, who fired upon his
own residence at the bombardment
of Yorktown; Andrew Lewis, the In
dian fighter. and John Marshall. long

statues in the rotunda of the building.
there are many valuable paintings OF

originals, and in many instances the
only ones in existence. There
are, perhaps, the portraits Of

CHAPTER XIII.

SCORE ONE FOR ME AGAIN!
The head of the police-department at st.
Malo received the note sent him by Lydia.
1t arrived perhaps a half hour earlier
than did that to the similar official at St.
Brieux. -
The effect upon both men was electrical
tThey were rivals. Paris was goal for the
hopes of each, and when a successor to the
chief of the police-department of that great
city was mentioned, the two names most
prominent were those OF Jean Leroi and
Jean Louvait, of st. BrieuX and st. Malo, re-
spectively. sEE sAar.s-- ....-.
Leroi was tail and finely proportional; a
man of great strength of body and will;
with a noticeably keen blue eye. Louvait
was short and slender, with mass of thick,
dark, wavy hair, browning a remarkably
well developed head; a finely chiseled face
of almost waxy pallor, which, at will, he
could render absolutely expressionless; a
piercingly brilliant gray eye, and person
al ma gnetism few men could resist. -
Both were remarkable men, and each,
knowing the extraordinary abilities of his
adversary, feared the other.
= Fortune seemed rather to smile upon
Eouvait, who, ike Bonaparte, while not re-
hitting his own unusual exertions, consid-
cred himself the child of fate, the creature
of destiny. Indeed, Louvait's personal ap-
great Emperor-so much so that no stranger
failed to remark upon the resemblance;
while, singular to relate, Leroi, on the other
hand, born of an English mother, bore
strong likeness to the Iron Duke.
In this matter of the Princess Natalie
fortune again favored Louvait. He had re-
ceived his note first in point of time, and In
an instant perceived the windfall of good
luck to him. A Princess abducted All
Europe and England would be thrilled by
the news, and the detective who discovered
and caught the abductors would make his
fortune ~ ~
Orders were at once issued to keep an
outlook of the most extraordinary vigilance;
to make inquiries along the coast under his
jurisdiction as to all strange vessels; to in
ouire what boats had left or arrived within
the last three days, and to Immediately ar
rest all suspicious persons.
s.Now for Chateau D'OrI' quoth Louvait.
